    1 How Do I Get Started with Aperture? COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL 004_9781118274293-ch01.indd4_9781118274293-ch01.indd 2 99/18/12/18/12 112:002:00 PPMM 1 2345678910 Aperture is like iPhoto on steroids in some ways; but in other ways, it’s a com- pletely different beast. Unlike iPhoto, it’s designed to be an incredibly flexi- ble image, video, and audio file asset management tool that you can integrate into your existing workflow. However, this flexibility means that Aperture has more jargon, settings, and buttons than iPhoto. This chapter helps demystify Aperture’s jargon and shows you key fundamentals you need to know when using Aperture. Understanding Why Aperture Is a Key Part of Your Workflow . 4 Working with Aperture’s File Structure . 6 A Brief Tour of Aperture’s Interface . 13 Basic Customization Options . 26 004_9781118274293-ch01.indd4_9781118274293-ch01.indd 3 99/18/12/18/12 112:002:00 PPMM Aperture 3 Portable Genius Understanding Why Aperture Is a Key Part of Your Workflow Most photographers agree that the time you spend behind the lens shooting is the best part of being a photographer, and all the other stuff (processing an image, categorizing it, trying to sell it, or using it to promote business) is really just annoying. While digital photography enables you to be more creative as a photographer, from being able to see right away whether you got the shot to being able to experiment as much as you want with the only cost being hard drive space, the “other stuff” arguably gets more frustrating because now you have to manage digital files instead of physical film and learn to use multiple programs to develop and output your images.
